Dale worked as a maintenance man for various companies, as he took pride in working with his hands.  He was known as a “jack of all trades” due to his ability to quickly adapt and learn new skills.  He was a devoted father who enjoyed watching his children play sports and taking them to the park.  He could often be found in the garage tinkering on items or working on cars.  He also enjoyed listening to music, the Chicago Bulls, grilling and helping people.  He had an infectious laugh, sarcastic sense of humor, and the ability to make new friends wherever he went. Survivors include his father and step mother, Dale (Barbara) Wingler Sr., Rock Island; mother, Lorraine DeMoss, DeWitt; grandmother, Rose Dow, England; son, Devin Wingler; daughter, Valerie Smith; siblings, Neil (Glenda) Wingler, Davenport; Sarah (Lee) Clark, DeWitt, Stuart DeMoss, Davenport; step sisters, Corey Freeman, Florida and Bobbie Ojeda, Rock Island; several nieces and nephews; and Lacy Wingler, mother of his children.
